Perhaps the parting in autumn is destined to be especially cold this winter.

Unknowingly, the winter of 2008 came, and even Jiangcheng had a heavy snowfall.

Zhang Xiaobai kept running in Tangcheng and Jiangcheng, the construction of Su's electrical online platform has come to an end, and the offline warehousing and logistics have been prepared, just waiting for a thunderclap at the last moment.

At this time, Zhang Xiaobai was not in a hurry, according to the mysterious person, the progress of Yuan's electrical appliances was slow, and it would have to wait until next year to complete.

In that case, it would be nice to wait and wait until they were about to finish before giving a blow.

There are also a lot of things on Tangcheng's side, the martial arts 3D version of the game is progressing rapidly, and it has entered the inner stage, this project is particularly important for Treasure Chest Technology, as long as Zhang Xiaobai comes back, he will be in the company for a long time.

Niu 1 and Niu 2 have played a good guiding role, especially in the details of continuous excellence.

After the Chinese New Year, the game will inevitably be launched.

There are not many things to do with brother tourism, various projects have been completed, Pingshui Camp and Wolong Village have built a lot of farmhouses, solving the problem of food and accommodation for tourists, just waiting for the spring flowers to open next year.

Wei Wei's ability gradually appeared, so that Ji Xiaorou wanted to give way, but the little witch didn't do anything, Zhang Xiaobai didn't say anything, Wei Wei was still young after all, and he needed more experience accumulation.

The most important thing here is to form a team, especially the security and service team, the tourist attraction does not need to do anything, just do the service of tourists wholeheartedly.

Wei Wei once said that tourists are God, as long as the service to tourists is good, tourism will be impressive.

Zhang Xiaobai agreed with this point of view, and basically handed over all the formation work to Wei Wei, and he only played a certain guiding role.

At the end of December, Ling Ran was discharged from the army and came to Tang City.

Zhang Xiaobai happened to be here, and he came to pick him up in person, and he didn't call Bai Lu, he just wanted to talk to him alone.

Ling Ran came to Tangcheng for the first time, looked at this bustling city, and said with emotion: "It is worthy of being a steel city." ”

Zhang Xiaobai sighed and said: "It used to be, but now it is reluctantly, and it is estimated that it will not be in the future." ”

This winter has been cold, the steel industry is even colder, steel prices have halved compared to September, and looking at the momentum, there seems to be no end in sight.

Ling Ran said: "I've come to Tang City to join you, let's say, how do you arrange for me?" ”

Zhang Xiaobai asked, "What do you think?" ”

Ling Ran said: "I know that you have a deep relationship here, the industry is not small, and I know your relationship with Bai Lu, but you can't show favoritism, I just entered the society and have no experience, I just want to start from the bottom and go step by step, if it is a dragon, I can fly, if it is a worm, I will be down-to-earth." ”

I had heard Bai Lu tell too many stories about Zhang Xiaobai before, and I always felt that those legends were like legends, but Ling Ran knew that Bai Lu couldn't lie to himself.

For Zhang Xiaobai, Ling Ran can only admire.

Zhang Xiaobai was very satisfied with Ling Ran's words, and came to pick him up alone this time, also to ask him what he thought about his work.

Even now, Sister Bai Lu and Ling Ran have been so good, Zhang Xiaobai is still a little relieved, and decides to test it again.

The more you care about a person, the more you think.

Zhang Xiaobai said: "Travel company, you and another retired brother are responsible for security!" ”

Ling Ran frowned and said, "Responsible? Am I leading? ”

Zhang Xiaobai said: "He is the captain, you are the vice captain!" ”

Liu Tieying is in Tangcheng and is now the captain of the security team, but now there are only a few security guards, and they will recruit people on a large scale after the next year.

Security is important, first of all to ensure the safety of visitors, and on the other hand, to protect the natural scenery and facilities.

Ling Ran hesitated for a while and said, "It's the vice captain who comes up, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it well!" ”

Zhang Xiaobai said angrily: "The people who have led the soldiers can't do this, what else can you do?" ”

Ling Ran explained: "The military camp and society are definitely different, they all have their own rules, and I want to start as an ordinary security guard. ”

Zhang Xiaobai said: "Don't say it, it's hypocritical to talk about it, this is also what my sister meant." ”

Ling Ran nodded and said, "Cheng, I'll do it if she asks me to do it!" ”

Zhang Xiaobai was silent for a while and said, "Ling Ran, do you know my relationship with my sister?" ”

Ling Ran said: "I understand, it's closer than my sister and brother." ”

Zhang Xiaobai said solemnly: "I know that you have reached the level of talking about marriage, today I will put this sentence, if you dare to treat my sister badly in the future, I will make you better for the rest of your life!" ”

A few threatening words, but Ling Ran was not angry, nodded lightly, and said: "I don't like to swear, things are done, let's see, if one day I really accept Bai Lu, you can take this life!" ”

Zhang Xiaobai patted Ling Ran's shoulder and said with a smile: "Good brother-in-law!" ”

This is officially recognized.

Zhang Xiaobai directly sent Ling Ran to Bai Lu's house, and said with a smile: "Sister, I brought your man back!" ”

Bai Lu didn't pay attention to him, looking at Ling Ran affectionately, and the two looked at each other.

Zhang Xiaobai felt that he couldn't be a light bulb here, so he resolutely went out and didn't forget to close the door.

When I got home, Wang Dalin happened to come over and made an appointment before.

The two sat on the sofa, and Su Tong made two cups of tea, much like a good wife and mother.

Zhang Xiaobai smiled: "Can't help it? ”

The two once talked about that once the industry collapsed, it would be time to buy Zhang Ruihua's steel mill at the bottom, and Wang Dalin came in November, and Zhang Xiaobai said that the time had not come.

Wang Dalin's expression was very respectful, every time he saw Zhang Xiaobai, he rubbed his hands and said, "Brother Bai, did you say that now is the time?" ”

Zhang Xiaobai shook his head and said, "It's not the time, no one knows where the bottom is, how can we copy the bottom?" ”

Wang Dalin asked: "But if it rebounds, the opportunity will be missed." ”

Zhang Xiaobai said: "No, the steel industry has been on fire for ten years, and it is impossible to slow it back so quickly, and now there is still a surplus of crude steel." I've been thinking about it, and I'll tell you when the time comes! ”

Wang Dalin said: "Okay, everything obeys Brother Bai." ”

Whatever others say, Wang Dalin will not believe it, and Zhang Xiaobai will believe whatever Wang Dalin says, just because he respects and admires this person.

And that was the end of it.

Facts have proved that Zhang Xiaobai's prediction is very correct, after New Year's Day, steel prices continue to fall, until this time, everyone in Tangcheng believes that the cold winter of the steel industry is really coming.

It was only at this time that someone remembered Zhang Xiaobai's prediction, he had already said that good days would not last long.

Dengfeng Iron and Steel suffered relatively small losses because of its early preparations, and the rest of the steel mills suffered heavy losses. Some small mines and small concentrators can only choose to stop production, and various industries that depend on the steel industry have been affected to varying degrees.

Tangcheng's economy is in serious decline.

In the face of megatrends, no one can escape.

In 2009, I spent this cold time.
